To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media hereβ€”but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

Folks, tomorrow is the deadline for one of the three passport portals receiving comments on proposed anti-trans changes.

Don’t wait: Add your voice on the issue now! transequality.org/news/freedom...
